It is American and we don't have it?
It's Boeing and we don't have it.

Seriously, it would be a hangar queen, despite its coolness.

Fi156 actually has specific uses that cannot be filled by any other aircraft.  P-26 does not.

D3A is not that good for spotting. Its a low wing aircraft and does not have a good view of the ground directly below  :uhoh

Why would you think the D3A would be more fragile than the Fi156?

Both are unarmored and slow, with practically no defensive armaments, given some aircraft in Aces High are way to easy to bring down / take punishment its curious to see how the Fi156 is modeled first, it could simply be another brewster.

Unarmored is only a small part of it.  The P-47 is mostly unarmored.  The robustness of the aircraft structure is also a factor and I'd bet on the D3A's structure being more robust.  It has a lot more weight of metal in it and is built for carrier operations.  While the D3A1 is slow, it is 130+mph faster than the Fi156.
